    Och, I did enjoy that, Peter.
    First went there in 1960. Learnt to ski in Coire Cas and The White Lady. Just a tractor tow. Stayed at Loch Morlich lodge. Had to carry the skis up the rough track before the road was built to Jean's Hut, in memory of a lady who fell from a snow cornice. And the skis were wooden!
    Been back a few times since cmpleating the Munros, but not as often as I'd have liked living doon south.
    Magic place.

      Hi Geoffrey. I would have loved to have seen the place before all the concrete . Ski slopes aye ok but some of the other stuff nah! I once met an old man who moved to New Zealand from Scotland and he was telling me what the place was like in the late 50's and early 60's. He always climbs Cairngorm when he returns to visit but he wont touch the Funicular with a barge pole he said ha ha! Thanks for watching Geoffrey hope all is well my friend, peter 👍

    That was so good Peter. With a sprinkling of winter and sunshine you could stroll to your hearts content enjoying the tops and valleys as you did so. Fantastic views up there and how awesome was that to see the Lairig Ghru from above. I always see it from down below in other peoples videos. Yeah, a good walk from start to finish. I enjoyed that guy on the ridge. Mark

A hill walker explained to me that it was a "temp inversion" first time i have heard of that sort of thing :) Have a good Xmas Colin and thanks for watching, peter.
